Like many others who have posted, the training on the IBB process was very helpful and again emphasizes the need to have training before bargaining the real deal.
I was surprised how hard it was for me to get away from the "I want" and "how do we get more for us" syndrome. Is that just from years of traditional bargaining contracts? Maybe it is the union mindset as my husband is an electrician. I would have found it difficult to trust the management team in the IBB process to really want positive outcomes for the employees. I hated that I didn't have that trust. So, when after all the participants go through the training, it is that process of training that helps all participants prepare for bargaining, but build the trust through the training process. Is that right?
A very thought provoking process that I shared with my superintendent!
